Poster created for the exhibition Marianna Castillo Deball: Between making and knowing something (2 October 2020 - 2 January 2021).
Through a collage-like installation featuring pottery, photography and textiles, Mexican-born artist Mariana Castillo Deball works to uncover stories and individuals often hidden in traditional museum displays. The exhibition focussed on sharing the stories of a number of little-known female anthropologists and indigenous storytellers and makers. To do this, the artist recreated historical artefacts and reconfigured display cases to expose how museum collections both conceal and reveal historical narratives and shape our understanding of the world.
